No excuse needed, no excuse accepted.
No matter what you have to say about the situation, the rapist president counts this as full-on support for him, and if you’re supporting him, I cannot support you.
Throwing in with such deplorable people will do nothing for your activism, but you will be used while the cutting of funding for cause you want us to believe in.
Yeah! All the people actually waking up from rape date drug the last administration and media had slipped the American people over the last 4 years can pound sand!
Anyone noticing that this administration is seemingly only pulling people who were mildly famous 35 years ago and trying to bring them back? First Terri "Male Pattern Baldness" Hogan, now jewel? Not to mention that idiot who was in that show chuck
No sympathy for Nazis or their supporters. Looking at you @cnn.com don't think we don't notice. If you think you fear Trump, wait till you find out what's it like being on the wrong side of history.
Jewel is not the sharpest knife in the drawer and she has a fair ego. The idea that she will have an impact on anything besides lending her fadingly famous name to the inauguration is just silly. https://youtube.com/shorts/v0X3RX2dchU?si=QjUs0v8uoxU-8iC5
Listen, if you like Trumpty, the GOP or their ideas, that's your choice. But he's a clear danger to society. He's Hitler 2.0 along with Musky, that pair is dangerous and deceitful. Trumpty is a racist buffoon. If you voted for him, I'm assuming you're also racist.
Have never watched Fox. In Canada you have to order channel with your cable provider. I have never ordered it as one of my stations..don't order CNN either.
I love Jewel, I work in MH, I’m not sure that was a good decision, however democracy is about freedom of choice, so she chose. I’m disappointed with her decision!
I used to love Jewel, I can't anymore. She certainly had the freedom to choose and we have the freedom to choose to delete her from our memories. Bad decisions have consequences, and like most people, she'll learn that the hard way.
People say whatever just to play for a president, any president. I don’t believe her reasoning for one second. She sold out. And I’m selling her out. No more support from me, not on my Spotify list, good bye.
I'm on Tidal so if you press on the three dots and block she never plays. I quite liked her (once). But no. If 10 people sit down at a table and a Nazi sits down there are 11 Nazis at the table. And I remember Samoa, watching in NZ as babies died. She can go. to. hell.
No explanation needed because it's obvious that she's a Nazi sympathizer and is ok with sexual abuse on women. What a fucking soulless bitch. No one was listening to her anymore anyhow.
Just a reminder to Spotify users... you can block all of an artist's music on their main page very easily. Just click on the vertical three dots on their page and select "don't play this artist's music."
I just received my first message to pray for someone who ended her life due to deep depression over Trump's re-ascendancy and politics of shameless cruelty and destruction. Just five days in. We need mental health advocacy, but not by singing for fascists.
Was she working closely with Biden's Sec of Health & Human Services? If so, I can cut her some slack, but if this is a new outreach on her part, she's lost my respect.
I'm sorry, but WHO? Never heard of her and I'm kind of glad I hadn't until today. I don't care what excuses you make for performing at a MAGA event; you're still a sellout piece of shit.
How does it feel to perform like a puppet for a convicted (and admitted) sex offender, convicted felon, and a treasonous snake? Something tells me your message of “trying to help” will get lost amongst the noise.
I call BS on this. Especially when the new administration is moving to get rid of Obama care and removing specifically to remove coverage for those with preexisting conditions. I’m guessing her schedule was wide open and they offered her a pretty penny.
I’d say there are miles and miles between not agreeing with someone 100% and performing at an inauguration. As for advocating for mental health, if you think Trump and his Administration is going to meet you on that you need only look at the EOs over the last week.
So true. My own dad died of polio in 1960. The few memories I have of my father occurred before I was 5 yrs old. I thought this horrific disease had been eradicated, but the disease of trumpism was too great.
Jewel can tell it to Sinead-that’s real courage, not cowering to an adjudicated rapist so he might help your cause. But they won’t- they hate people they think are lesser-specifically those with mental health issues
I’m not even going to read her excuse/justification/whatever. Entertaining a fascist gathering makes her a nonperson to me. She can take her songs about pjs and other stuff and jam them up her ass.
Anyone and I mean ANYONE who supports this MAGAt infested, Nazi-style government is garbage.
Including MEDIA such as @cnn.com @washingtonpost.com @nytimes.com
Your kissing the ring will be your downfall!
This!💙
If Jewel accepted the invitation she’s part of the problem. Anyone who normalizes a criminal occupying the Oval Office is part of the problem. Lives are at stake.
MAHA in particular is an anti-queer and especially anti-trans lobby. Under the guise of "mental health advocacy," they try to brand being trans as mental illness and push conversion therapy. Damn, Jewel. Another one down.
Performers are *invited* to preform, they’re not paid. I’d wager those that do preform believed it would improve their streaming numbers and other forms of revenue.
Somebody prescribe a wake-up pill for Jewel. She can’t help this administration. They are a train wreck. They won’t change until they implode. It’s a cult Jewel! You drank the Kool-aid! You face the consequences.
It wasn’t the real Village People, though. Victor Willis is the only OG member who was with the group at the inauguration. The group disbanded in 2017 and was replaced with new people.
Just to clarify, fu*k ONE village person - the original members would have never been for this one of them openly came out and clarified not to long ago
Yeah! Fuck all the people actually waking up from rape date drug the last administration and media had slipped the American people over the last 4 years!
Jewel said she thinks there are people in this admin who are willing to help regarding mental health. She doesn't mention the mental health of all the people being damaged by MAGA - bullies teaching kids hate, death threats, Jan 6 police, 2SLGBTQIA+, women with reproductive issues, racism, etc..
Snoop is the biggest sell out. He made a video after Trumps first election making fun of him calling him a clown. And now that bitch is singing at his inauguration . What a sell out for sure
So disappointed in snoop. I really held him to a fairly high standard as standards go in the entertainment industry. But now, not. I will forgo any of his shows he appears on and will garbage his music. I feel betrayed insulted betrayed
“I am so sorry that I caused pain, especially in my LGBTQIA+ community, because you guys are treasures,” she added. Well, LGBTQIA+ were among the first minorities targetted by Trump in the opening days of his administration. Maybe when they tell you what they are going to do, you should listen.
I'm still surprised at the number of articles calling RFK Jr a "vaccine skeptic." It implies that there's some evidence that will convince him. He's a "vaccine denier."
Explain she did. In no satisfactory way for a mental health advocate. Never condone a condemner. Never condone an abuser. Never condone one who chastises you for being yourself.
I was sad to see she performed at an Inauguration Ball. How disappointing. I loved the “Pieces of You” album back in 1995. All I can say to her excuse is “too little, too late.” Does she really think they care about mental health?? I think she sold her soul for $. I hope it was worth it. 😣

Listen to her.
No explanation will suffice.
Moments gone
Jewel: -continues to be a nazi-
Plain & simple.
It’s all she has to say.
No sympathy for Nazis or their supporters. Looking at you @cnn.com don't think we don't notice. If you think you fear Trump, wait till you find out what's it like being on the wrong side of history.
SO IMPORTANT they included Black people who were violently prohibited from voting
NOW cynically exploiting science + privilege to lie + attribute their excellent health to superior uberman-DNA or purple moss
I hope it's damage control otherwise I fear she's a self important simpleton
Clearly everyone has a price
If no, she can shut the fuck up. Not interested.
Either way, I have nothing for her.
He is not „vaccination“ sceptic, he want‘s to ban it. Wellcome back Polio.

What a crock.

Are your saying they went to perform FOR TRUMP of all people just so that they can stay relevant? I don't know, doesn't seem likely.
It'd be sad if its true.
Someone to be avoided.
She saw an opportunity to hitch her waggon to the grifters.
Reminds me of Vichy France in WW2
What am I doing?
Most of your readers wouldn't understand history.
Silly me.
